More frustration with SP-1's (?) upgraded Task Scheduler :
All options are greyed out in Services panel (Administrative Tools). I
cannot Stop / Start / Auto-Manual this service.
Yes, I have all privileges and credit cards ( I checked by looking at other
Services items Properties). I did find a kludge registry work-around.
Nice, Microsoft. I have to regedit to some obscure key to enable/disable
Task Service.
Off to send another email to T-t-tech support.
